Recent earthquakes in Korea caused some damages to stone pagodas and thereby awakened the importance of earthquake preparedness. Korean stone pagodas which have been built with very creative style of material use and construction method are worthy of world heritage. Each stone pagoda consists of three parts: top; body; and base. However each tower is uniquely defined by its own features, which makes it more difficult to generalize the seismic assessment method for stone pagodas. This study has focused on qualitative preliminary evaluation of stone pagodas that enables us to compare the relative seismic performance across major aspects among many various Korean pagodas. Specifically an analytical model for multi-block stone pagodas is to be proposed upon the investigation of structural characteristics of stone pagoda and their dynamic behavior. A strategy for seismic evaluation of heritage stone pagodas is to be established and major evaluation factors appropriate for the qualitative evaluation are identified. The evaluation factors for overall seismic resisting behavior of stone pagodas are selected based on the dynamic motions of a rigid block and its limit state. Numerical simulation analysis using discrete element method is performed to analyze the sensitivity of each factor to earthquake and discuss some effects on seismic performance.

This study aimed to develop and evaluate a sugars intake reduction program (SIRP) that was designed to increase the knowledge, attitude, and skills of Korean children aged 5 years regarding sugars intake reduction. A total of 101 children aged 5~6 years from 6 preschools participated in SIRP. SIRP consisted of 4 sessions including 10 activities (e.g., story-telling, arts, experiment, checking nutrition facts, pledge), delivered to children at preschools by nutritionists over a one-month period. Three letters were sent to parents throughout the program to inform them of the children’s activities at the preschools and to provide additional information on reducing children’s sugars intake. A total of 90 children completed the program; 83 parents of these children completed the SIRP evaluation survey. The children’s sugars intake reduction score was significantly increased after attending SIRP. Teachers (n=6) who participated in this program agreed to improve their students’ attitudes on reducing sugars intake and to decrease students’ behaviors related to sugars intake. Parents agreed to improve their children’s attitude on reducing sugars intake and to decrease children’s behaviors related to sugars intake. The outcome showed SIRP improved participants’ attitudes towards sugars reduction and increased the skills to reduce the sugars intake of children aged 5~6 years. Future studies should examine whether SIRP reduces actual sugars intake among children.

감귤(Citrus unshiu Marc.)의 곰팡이(Penicillium digitatum) 발병 억제를 위해 선행연구를 통해 개발된 grapefruit seed extract (GSE) 코팅제와 활성칼슘, 푸마르산, 그리고 미산성 전해수의 병합처리 방법을 개발하였고, 각각의 처리를 통해 항곰팡이 효과가 유의적으로 가장 높은 조건을 최적 병합처리 조건으로 결정하여, 저장 중 감귤의 품질특성과 항곰팡이 효과를 조사하였다. 감귤 시료는 0.2% 활성 칼슘 수용액(0.2% CaO/distilled water (w/w), CaO) 과 0.5% 푸마르산/미산성 전해수(w/w) 수용액(0.5% fumaric acid/ slightly acidic electrolyzed water (w/w), FS), 그리고 CaO와 FS의 혼합액(CaO-FS)으로 3종류의 처리를 하였다. 감귤은 각 처리용액 별로 3분간 침지세척한 후, 카나우바 왁스 대비 1.0% GSE (w/w)와 Tween-80 (25% w/GSE w)을 혼합한 코팅액(GSE 코팅)으로 코팅되었다. 각 처리용액과 GSE 코팅을 병합처리한 결과, CaO-GSE 코팅의 항곰팡이 효과가 유의적으로 높아 최적 병합처리조건으로 결정되었다(p<0.05). 무처리구, GSE 코팅, 그리고 CaO 처리 후 코팅한 감귤(CaO-GSE 코팅)은 4°C에서 35일, 25°C에서 14일간 저장되었다. 25°C에 저장된 CaO-GSE 코팅은 무처리구와 GSE 코팅보다 감귤의 P. digitatum 생장을 효과적으로 억제하였다(p<0.05). 또한 CaO-GSE 코팅은 저장온도에 관계없이 감귤의 경도에 영향을 주지 않았고, 25°C에 저장 했을 시, 무처리구에 비해 유의적으로 높은 경도를 유지하였다(p<0.05). CaO-GSE 코팅은 저장온도와 저장일자에 관계없이 무처리구와 GSE 코팅에 비해 호흡률이 낮았고, 저장 중 감귤의 당도, pH는 무처리구와 유의적으로 비슷한 경향을 보였다. 저장기간에 관계없이 CaO-GSE 코팅의 적정산도는 4°C에서 무처리구와 유의적인 차이가 없었으나, 25°C에서는 무처리구보다 유의적으로 높았다. 저장기간 동안 감귤의 색도 중 명도와 적색도는 저장기간, 저장일자, 그리고 처리여부에 관계없이 저장기간 동안 모든 시료에서 유의적인 차이가 없는 것으로 보였으나, GSE 코팅과 CaO-GSE 코팅의 황색도는 저장일자가 길어질수록 무처리구에 비해 유의적으로 감소하였다. 반면에, 감귤의 아스코르브산 농도, 총 페놀 함량, 항산화능은 모든 온도에서 총 저장기간 동안 CaO-GSE 코팅이 GSE 코팅보다 지속적으로 높게 유지되었다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 개발된 CaO-GSE 코팅은 저장 중 감귤의 P. digitatum 생장억제와 저장 중 감귤의 품질을 유지시켜 감귤의 저장성 증대에 기여할 것이다.

감귤(Citrus unshiu Marc.)에 활성칼슘수용액과 grapefruit seed extract (GSE)코팅을 병합 처리한 후, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP)를 통해 Penicillium digitatum (P. digitatum)에 대한 저해효과를 확인하였고, 저장 기간 동안에 감귤의 이화학적 특성과 품질 특성을 조사하였다. 감귤은 0.2% 활성 칼슘 수용액(0.2% CaO/distilled water(w/w), CaO)으로 3분간 침지세척 후, GSE (1% w/ 카나우바 왁스 w)와 Tween-80 (25% w/GSE w)을 혼합하여 10,000 rpm에서 2분간 균질화시킨 에멀젼 용액으로 코팅(GSE 코팅)되었다. 무처리 감귤, GSE 코팅처리 감귤, 그리고 CaO-GSE 코팅처리 감귤(0.2% 활성칼슘 수용액으로 세척 후, GSE 코팅 처리된 감귤)은 nylon/low-density-polyethylene(N/LDPE) 포장지에 담은 후 진공포장기를 이용하여 각각 air와 MA (O2: CO2: N2 = 9.9±0.2: 2.1±0.1: 88.0±0.3)로 포장하였고, 포장된 감귤들은 4°C에서 35일, 25°C에서 14일간 저장되었다. CaO-GSE 코팅 감귤 (MAP)의 호흡률은 저장온도에 관계없이 무처리 감귤과 GSE 코팅 감귤에 비해 낮았고, 가장 효과적으로 N/LDPE 포장지 내의 가스조성을 유지하였다. GSE 코팅 또는 CaO-GSE 코팅 처리는 포장기체 조성에 관계없이 감귤의 경도에 유의적인 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 또한, CaO-GSE 코팅(MAP)의 당도는 GSE 코팅(air와 MAP)에 비해 무처리구와 유의적인 차이가 적었으며, CaO-GSE 코팅(MAP)는 pH를 무처리구와 GSE 코팅에 비해 각각의 저장온도에서 연속적으로 유지하였다. 저장기간과 저장온도, 그리고 기체조성에 관계없이 CaO-GSE 코팅 (MAP)는 무처리구 또는 GSE 코팅보다 감귤의 적정산도, 아스코브산 농도, 총 페놀 함량, 그리고 항산화능을 지속적으로 유지하였다. CaO-GSE 코팅 (MAP)의 황색도는 저장온도와 저장일자에 관계없이 무처리구(MAP)의 황색도와 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 실험한 CaO-GSE 코팅(MAP)는 저장기간 동안 감귤의 이화학적 특성을 유지하면서 저장기간을 연장시킬 것이다.

This study investigated the current status and needs for nutrition education to help reduce children’s sugars intake at the Center for Children’s Foodservice Management (CCFM, n=115), and Child Care Facilities (CCF, n=646) through an online survey conducted from October 5th to 30th 2015. A total of 14.8% of CCFM respondents and 31.9% of CCF respondents provided nutrition education on sugars intake to young children as a main topic (p<0.001). A higher percentage (CCFM 47.8%: CCF 42.4%) delivered nutrition education on sugars intake to young children as a sub-component (p<0.001). Over 90% of the CCFM and CCF participants agreed on the necessity of providing nutrition education on sugars intake to children. The most common reasons given for delivering nutrition education on children’s sugar intake were “there are many more urgent nutrition education topics” for CCFM, and “insufficient nutrition education information and materials” for CCF. The percentage of nutrition education on children’s sugar intake provided to the children’s parents was low showing about 20% in the both groups. The percentage of CCFM participants providing nutrition, education on children’s sugar intake to the teachers in CCF was also low, showing about 14.8%; however, 68.0% of the CCF participants wanted to received teacher's education on guiding children’s sugar intake. Regarding ideas about a nutrition education program on children’s sugar intake for young children, most respondents in both groups answered “sugar intake and dental cavities or obesity” for appropriate education contents, “story telling or puppet show” for appropriate education methods, and “dietitian from CCFM and class teacher together” for appropriate educator. For appropriate education time, there was a significantl difference between the CCFM responses (average 2.7 times) and the CCF responses (average 4 times). Based on the above results, we found that implementing nutrition education on children's sugar intake at the CCFM and CCF, was low; however, awareness of the need for nutrition education on children’s sugar intake and the program development and supply was very high. Also, the opinions of CCFM and CCF participants about a nutrition education program on children’s sugar intake for young children can provide foundation data to develop and implement the CCFM-based nutrition education program.

본고는 영국에서 활동한 미국인 인상파 화가 제임스 맥닐 휘슬러의 작품과 그가 디자인한 <공작의 방>에 구현된 19세기 중 반 이후 영국사회의 중국 청화백자 수집 열광 현상인 ‘차이나매니아(Chinamania)’에 관해 고찰한 것이다. 17, 18세기 중 국 청화백자에서 자신의 예술적 영감의 원천을 발견한 휘슬러에 의해 촉발된 1860년대 영국에서의 차이나매니아 현상 은 <공작의 방>이 완성된 1870년대 후반기에 이르러 부르주아 계층의 주요 소장가 그룹을 중심으로 점차 영국 상류 사회 전반에 확산되어갔다. 1878년 휘슬러에 의해 완성된 <공작의 방>은 19세기 중반 이후 영국사회에서 유행한 중국 청화백 자 소장 문화의 특성을 고스란히 반영하고 있다. 휘슬러의 17, 18세기 중국 청화백자를 소재로 한 회화 작품과 그가 구성 한 <공작의 방>의 제작 과정을 분석하는 연구는 1860년대 이후 영국 상류사회에서 새롭게 등장한 중국 도자기에 대한 미적 취향과 소장 문화의 의미를 파악하는데 있어서 중요한 학술적 의미를 지니고 있다.

Secure operation of hospitals during and right after earthquake is essential. Past lessons from earthquake damages have shown that most of the injured and the death occurred within 30 minutes after earthquake and the portion of nonstructural damage has become significant. However, hospital buildings in Korea have not prepared fully to address such rising issues. This paper is to study what type of damage patterns are related to hospital buildings and how to develop a preparedness plan to keep hospitals operational at all earthquakes if possible. This paper first reviews on past earthquake damages reported as critical to hospital buildings while classifying them into four groups: (1) structural element; (2) architectural-nostructural element; (3) medical equipments and contents; and (4) utility facility. Upon such classification, some detailed concerns can be specified under each group explicitly. Then a hierarchy for hospital building is also developed for the classified groups, which enables us to identify required things for the enhancement of seismic performance of hospital building that consists of heterogeneous elements. To upgrade the level of seismic performance for existing hospital buildings, the concept of performance-based approach can be adopted to address the heterogeneous problems in a systematic and stepwise manner. Finally a conceptual framework for the seismic risk assessment for hospital building is proposed toward the seismic enhancement of hospital buildings using performance-based approach.

This study was conducted to develop and validate the Sugar Intake Reduction Test (SIRT) for young children, and included eating behaviors, attitude, and nutritional knowledge about sugars. A draft version of the SIRT was developed after literature review. The final draft of the SIRT was established after two pilot tests of 5 year old children and an expert group’s review, and is comprised of a one on one test between an investigator and a child using picture tools. It contained of 20 questions which included 3 components: eating behaviors (5 items), preference for sugar sweetened food (10 items), and nutritional knowledge about sugars (5 items). The final SIRT was conducted on 181 children 5 (n=100) to 6 (n=81) years old, to examine its item and test adequacies. The passing rate of most items significantly increased with increasing age, and most of the item discrimination also differed significantly between the below and upper score groups. The content validity was given a high score by professionals (mean score 3.9 out of 4). Reliability of all the items in the SIRT was high (Cronbach’s α=0.82). Moreover, the total component and the sub-component scores of the SIRT correlated significantly. Our results indicate that the SIRT is a valid tool to measure sugar intake reduction in young children aged 5~6 years.

Silver nanomaterials have been intensively applied in consumer products of diverse industrial sectors because of their strong biocidal properties and reported to be hazardous to aquatic organisms once released in the environment. Nanomaterials including sliver, are known to be different in toxicity according to their physicochemical characteristics such as size, shape, length etc. However studies comparing toxicity among silver nanomaterials with different physicochemical characteristics are very limited. Here, toxicities of silver nanomaterials with different size (50, 100, 150 nm), length (10, 20 μm), shape (wire, sphere), and coating material (polyvinylpyrrolidone, citrate) using OECD test guidelines were evaluated in aquatic species (zebrafish, daphnia, algae) and compared. On a size property, the smaller of silver nanomaterials, the more toxic to tested organisms. Sphered type of silver nanomaterials was less toxic to organisms than wired type, and shorter nanowires were less toxic than longer ones. Meanwhile the toxic effects of materials coated on silver nanomaterials were slightly different in each tested species, but not statistically significant. To the best of our knowledge, it is first investigation to evaluate and compare ecotoxicity of silver nanomaterials having different physicochemical characteristics using same test species and test guidelines. This study can provide valuable information for human and environmental risk assessment of silver nanomaterials and guide material manufacturers to synthesize silver nanomaterials more safely to human and environment.

Most Korean companies in the fashion industry are SMEs, and the role of the CEO and management ownership is important for enhancing the firm’s competence and developing strategies. The study aims to examine the effect of management ownership on company financial growth. In particular, the study focuses on the moderating effect of company age and size on Korean fashion SMEs’ financial outcomes. Financial data based on company financial statements from 2012 to 2014 was collected by the Data Analysis, Retrieval and Transfer System of Korea’s Financial Supervisory Service. A total of 295 companies’ (domestic fashion businesses) data was analyzed by the bootstrap method. The median sales value in the financial year 2014 was 47,492,403,958 KRW, and the company size was divided by it. The companies were in business for an average of 20 years. According to the results, the management ownership had a negative effect on Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the three-years, and the relationship between the two variables was moderated by company age. Additionally, the interaction effect of management ownership and company age on 3-CAGR was also moderated by company size. When the companies had spent only a few years in business, a negative effect of management ownership for small firms and a positive effect of management ownership on financial growth for medium firms were found. These results suggest that small companies starting business need to manage their company governance structure to make flexible decisions, and after retaining financial growth, the companies can expand their businesses based on strong ownership.

Historical Experience Program is a certain type of a field trip for elementary and middle school students, which includes visiting a historical place and having various outdoor activities related to the historical events that actually happend in the area. Usually the students make a group to participate, but the education is only done with the printed handouts and the guidance teacher's verbal explanation. In this research, we would like to make use of both location-based system and gamification theories to advance the educational form. Each students will be given smart devices to perform the tasks that are conducted by gamifying the historical information and materials. Location-based system will be guiding them to find the missions and clues around the area. The guidance teacher will be also using a smart device to figure out each student's location and how well they are performing. We've also run the actual field test, and found out that it was a very effective method for Historical Experience Programs. Students were very motivated by cooperting and competing with other students on gamified educational material, and had been very ammused by having outdoor activities using location-based system, and it lead to a significantly effective education.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between dietary behavior and temperament & character in preschool children, and to offer basic data that can be applied for nutrition education and counseling. A total of 211 parents of preschool children aged 3~5 years performed the Korean version of Preschool Temperament and Character Inventory (K-psTCI), a questionnaire based on Cloninger's seven-factor model of personality, along with a questionnaire about the dietary behaviors of their children. K-psTCI represented seven factors such as harm avoidance (HA), novelty seeking (NS), reward dependence (RD), persistence (P), self-directedness (SD), cooperativeness (CO), and self-transcendence (ST). The subjects were divided into either the high rank group or low rank group based on the mean score of each factor. The high rank group of HA showed significantly less physical activity and less appetite than the low rank group of HA. The children in the high rank of NS were more likely to have picky eating and a late night snack. The children in the low rank of SD or CO were more likely to have undesirable dietary behaviors, such as picky eating, too much snacking, and lower appetite than those in the high rank of SD or CO. In conclusion, individual temperament & character in preschool children may be associated with their dietary behavior, and understanding temperament & character in children may be important facts to screen and to develop an effective nutrition education program for children.
